Hey guys, so im getting ready to FINALLY start my 4.0l swap. I have had to postpone it almost an entire year due to finances and such, but with tax season coming around i can finally buy all the parts i need for it, possibly just going to buy a donor vehicle which will make things easier. possibly. seeing as i have alot of engine parts in my garage already and a completely restored and sealed 4.0l in there as well. so im looking for some advice for the fuel line modification on the swap. i bought the lines that go from the rail on the 4.0l to the fuel filter but dont know how im supposed to use them on the 2.9l fuel lines because the line from the fuel filter on the 2.9 has 1 rubber hose coming out of the top of the filter to the rail that splits into 2 quick disconnects. the 4.0l lines have i believe 3 metal lines and one connects to the fuel filter. I need as much help as possible as i believe this is the only thing that is going to hold me up! Thanks guys! im looking for the easiest way possible, no splicing of fuel lines if anybody knows possible. i dont want to chance it.

You have 3 lines on your frame rail that go to your tank.
1 goes from your fuel pump to your filter and from your filter to your fuel pressure regulator.
2nd one goes from your fuel rail staright to your tank which is your return line.
3rd one goes from your tank into your canister and its just a vent tube
